Plumbing: Gravity Drain Model
Caution: Restrictions in the drain system to the
machine will cause water to back up into the ice
storage bin and melt the ice. Gravity drain tubing
must be vented, have no kinks and slope to the
building drain. Air gaps are typically required by
local code.
1. Place the ice machine in front of the installation
opening. Adjust leveling legs to the approximate
height.
2. Remove the upper back panel if needed for
access to the drain fitting.
Note: If you are connecting a gravity drain model
and the drain opening has been located in the floor
under the base pan according to the pre install
specifications, follow steps 3 through 5 to drain the
unit through the base. If not, proceed to step 6b.
3. Remove the clamp and barbed elbow and take
off the plastic cover in the base pan below the drain
hose.
4. Connect a straight 5/8” barbed connector to the
drain hose, securing with the clamp removed in
step 3.
5. Cut an 8” piece of 5/8” ID X 7/8” OD tygon (clear
plastic) tubing. Slide one end of the tube onto the
outlet of the barbed connector and secure with a
clamp. Leave the other end of the tube lying on the
floor of the base pan until the unit is positioned
over the floor drain.
6. Route the drain tube. Either a) Insert the drain
tube through the base pan into the floor drain or b)
Route the drain tube through the hole in the lower
back panel and connect to barbed elbow and
secure with a clamp.
7. Reinstall the upper back panel.
Water Supply
The recommended water supply tubing is ¼ inch
OD copper. Stainless steel flex or reinforced PCV
tube may also be used. Install an easily accessible
shut-off valve between the supply and the unit. This
shut-off valve should not be installed behind the
unit.
The water connection is at the back of the cabinet.
Connect using a compression fitting, one is
supplied tied to the water inlet tube.
When built in: Coil enough tubing behind the
machine so it can be pushed into the cavity without
kinking the tubing.
